How this Warrior Realized a Big Opportunity in Workplace Safety-Zachary Green

Zachary Green is a warrior turned entrepreneur. He began his career as a U.S. Marine, and after leaving the Marines, he became a firefighter. It was as a firefighter that Zachary became keenly aware of the need to help other firefighters who might be trapped in burning buildings to be able to see an exit path so they could escape. He founded LumAware, a company whose photoluminescent helmet bands and exit path markings could enable a firefighter to see their way out through smoke and fire even without an electrical source. Listen as Zachary explains how his experiences in the military, firefighting, and as an entrepreneur helped him realize that these careers have a lot in common. They all entail risk, struggle, grit, and bravery. Hear about Zachary’s journey into entrepreneurship and what almost caused him to fail from the start.
